    Enjoy: ;)

    First off we are going to open up a sig complete with BG and no picture yet (text optional at this point in time)

    1. Get out the Sig and a Render of your choice. The color doesnt matter yet

    2. Erase around the render and Make the size you need

    http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v254/Dar...enders/Tut1.bmp

    3. Put the Picture in the Sig location is up to you.

    4. Now take out the magnetic lasso tool and ROUGHLY select aroun the image.

    http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v254/Dar...enders/tut2.bmp

    5. Right click Feather 20 pixels

    6. Right click select inverse and hit Delete

    7. Add the color with Ctrl+U to blend with BG

    8. Should have something like this so far:

    http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v254/Dar...enders/tut3.bmp

    9. Now add another image if desired and some text and a 3px border it should look like this:

    http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v254/Dar...23/Armycopy.jpg

    10. A 3px border is simple just ctrl+A select all do a 3px black a 2px grayish and a 1px of the color like your sig then blending options soft or hard light

    enjoy!

    PS sorry the images wouldnt show up and they came so small

    AWhy wouldnmt they host when i did the [​IMG]
